Dana and Tom with returning guest Adam Freed (moviearcher.com) revisit Pulp Fiction (1994): written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, starring John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Ving Rhames, Bruce Willis, and Uma Thurman.Plot Summary: Pulp Fiction unravels like a jigsaw puzzle soaked in bourbon and blood. It's a dark, gritty L.A., where bad men and worse women cross paths in a labyrinth of crime and fate.Vincent Vega, a hitman with a penchant for dance floors and bad decisions, is partnered with the philosophical Jules Winnfield, who quotes the Bible before squeezing the trigger. Their boss, Marsellus Wallace, a kingpin with a soft spot for his wife, Mia, tasks Vincent with keeping her entertained; a simple job that spirals into a night of adrenaline-fueled chaos. Meanwhile, Butch Coolidge, a boxer past his prime, refuses to take a dive for Wallace igniting a deadly game of cat and mouse.In a world where conversations drip with menace and every decision has a bullet attached, the characters' lives intersect with a bang. It's a world where the wrong move means a one-way ticket to the morgue, and redemption is as elusive as the briefcase everyone's chasing.Guest:Adam FreedManaging Editor and Senior Film Critic at (MovieArcher.com)@moviearcher on Twitter and InstagramPreviously on Batman (1989)Chapters:00:00 Welcome and Guest Introduction01:56 Cast and Recognition for Pulp Fiction04:49 Relationship(s) to Pulp Fiction12:47 Influence and Legacy of Pulp Fiction14:23 What is Pulp Fiction About?18:26 New Appreciation for Pulp Fiction21:52 What's the Actual Timeline of Pulp Fiction?25:51 Genre of Pulp Fiction27:57 Pulp Fiction's Influence34:58 Plot Summary of Pulp Fiction36:19 Did You Know?

The 88th and final episode of the hit 80s show The Equalizer, and the 94th and final episode of our podcast The Equalizers. The episode itself doesn't provide any closure for the original series, but at least it's one last bonkers plotline - Ving Rhames, playing what we assume is a first draft version of Marsellus Wallace, is a drug lord who employs specifcally injured athletes, and EQ has to protect a teenager Willy whose football is ending short because of a bad knee. But whereas the episode doesn't give any kind of grand sendoff to the series, Chris, Chuck, and Vince (yes Vince!) do their best to make up for it. We got together and MST3K'd this guy, having our own party and sending off our podcast in style.

We open today's show with more fallout from the Robert Hur Special Counsel Report on the Elderly Man with Memory Problems and how even CNN had to work overtime to debunk Joe Biden's lies when he tried to defend himself. Whether we like it or not, Biden has embarrassed himself, his presidency the Legacy/mainstream media and America. We hear from those who are in vehement support of the President, like Ian Sams and Mitch Landrieu, saying he has the mental acuity and vigor of men half their age! We also hear from the Legacy/mainstream media fact-checking all those lies and distortions. It's a spark that isn't going to burn itself out. In my mind, this is the Marsellus Wallace moment from Pulp Fiction, when he was talking to Bruce Willis about taking a dive. Biden was told to bow out, but he's refusing. So, the Hur report was the first warning shot to Biden to step out before it gets worse. But there is more to the Hur report than just the warning shot. In Appendix A of the document, there is a listing of the confidential documents retrieved form Joe's insecure locations. While we don't have the content (duh, they are classified) we do have the titles and dates, which is enough to bring even more clarity to the Biden Crime Family Syndicate. I'm sure it is just sheer coincidence that many of the files relate to Ukraine and their energy sector at the exact same time Hunter Biden is working on behalf of the board of Burisma. Imagine that! How ironic. Next I shift the Senate Foreign Aid Bill, formerly the Senate Border Security Bill. While many were focused on the Super Bowl, they passed it with 67 votes, which included 18 Republicans. Now, it goes to the House. You MUST contact your congressperson today and tell them to note pass that bill at all. At the very least they need to take out the language that sets a trap for Donald Trump if he were to become the next president. The time bomb built into the bill says the US will continue to fund Ukraine in perpetuity. So, if Trump manages to negotiate and end to the fighting and then pull back on funds which would not longer be necessary, it would setup a the next likely impeachment for breaking the law. Joe Biden ruined part of the Super Bowl blaming the private sector for shrinkflation. While I am not happy that we are paying more for less, I also know it is the fault of Bidenomics! Even Senator John Kennedy pressed Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen about the cost of goods. She said the cost doesn't need to come down because people are making more today. What an abject lie that we told you about last week when we broke down the jobs report. We close the show today with back-to-back segments! First, we get a Big Fani Willis Reality TV Show update. Seems people are coming out of the woodwork to testify about all her illegal moves and perjury. She is also being sued for not producing all of the documents a defense team requested, which is in defiance of Georgia law. Then we get to a Deep Thoughts by VP Kamala Harris segment. She never fails to disappoint, especially when, like Joe, she goes on autopilot with verbiage she has committed to memory. It doesn't matter how many times she's mocked for it's silliness, she loves it too much to stop using it. Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

If you're a hardcore Quentin Tarantino fan, you'll know that Michael Madsen's sadistic Vic Vega in Reservoir Dogs and John Travolta's Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction are brothers. Despite both characters dying in their respective films, Quentin Tarantino toyed with the idea of spinning the characters off into a prequel movie for many years. Eventually, Travolta and Madsen likely aged out of the idea, given that they would have had to convincingly play younger than they did in Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction. Still, the notion of a Vega Brothers movie is interesting. In this episode of WTF Happened to this Unmade Movie, which is written by Bryan Wolford, narrated by Bronwyn Kelly-Seigh, edited by Paul Cooper and produced by Taylor James Johnson, we dig into the movie that never was. We try to determine how far along Tarantino got in the process while considering what the film might have been like. Would it have ended with Vincent hooking up with Samuel L. Jackson's Jules Winnfield and going to work for Marsellus Wallace? Would the more sadistic Vic have ended up at odds with the nicer Vincent? These are interesting questions to ponder, even if a Vega Brothers movie is impossible now unless QT recasts the roles. Given that he's sworn only to direct one more movie, this project ever happening seems highly improbable, but it's fun to think about.

Welcome back, Wolf Pack! It's time to start the 2020-2021 school year. It's good to see coworkers in person again, and meet new friends. Last year, I did the Positive Rock Lyric of the Week because last year, the district's theme was that we are rock stars. This year's theme, Lights, Camera, Action led to a reimagining of my positive emails. This year we will be looking at Positive Cinematic Spotlights. The positivity may come from the movie plot itself, the making of the movie, or the stories of the actors involved. If there are any movies, directors, or actors you would like in the spotlight, send me an email and I will see what I can do. However, there are some controversial elements of Hollywood productions and people which I will not be touching with a pole equal to twice a social distance. So, this year we are starting off with 1994's Pulp Fiction. Pulp Fiction is a film with no shortage of questionable characters whom we should not admire or emulate. Sure, Jules has a little redemption arc, and Butch ends up seeing past his contentious relationship with Marsellus Wallace to come to his aid, but by and large, Pulp Fiction is filled with characters of poor moral fortitude making questionable decisions. The positive inspiration, however, comes from Pulp Fiction writer and director, Quentin Tarantino. Tarantino dropped out of high school at the age of 15. Growing up, Tarantino worked in a movie rental establishment. He had great passion for movies and had watched most of the movies in his place of employment and had been writing movies since middle school. He noticed three common tropes in some of his favorite films: the boxer who's supposed to throw a fight, but doesn't, the gangster who's supposed to entertain the mob boss's wife, and the hitmen sent to kill someone. Tarantino was starting to get work in Hollywood, getting critical acclaim for his independent film Reservoir Dogs. The script he wrote for Pulp Fiction was described as "the diary of a madman" by his typist. She also described Tarantino as having "atrocious handwriting", and described him as "functionally illiterate." She says, "I was averaging about 9,000 grammatical errors per page." Despite Tarantino's weaknesses, Pulp Fiction won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay at the 1995 Academy Awards. So, as we start out in the new world of virtual teaching, remember, it doesn't have to be pretty and refined, or meet the levels of experts in the field to be effective. Perfection does not guarantee success. After all, plenty of screenplays get written every year from college graduated writers who don't have their scripts made into movies, much less get described, as Roger Ebert labelled it, "the most influential film of the 1990s." And as a post-script...when talking with students about their goals and dreams, remember dropout Tarantino. He was able to turn a passion into an award winning career despite his weaknesses. Someone's potential is not always limited to their performance in a classroom. Thank you for being the best and for all that you do. Extra Movie Trivia Moment: Pulp Fiction was struggling to get funding, until it was shown to Harvey Keitel. Keitel loved it and met with Tarantino. He asked the scriptwriter, “How'd you come to write this script? Did you live in a tough-guy neighborhood growing up?” Tarantino responded that he did not. He also explained no one in his family was connected to tough guys. Keitel then asked, “Well, How ...did you come to write this?' And he said, ‘I watch movies.” Don't underestimate second hand experiences. They can be rewarding and beneficial. Thank you for being the best and for all that you do.

I think we started that, and I also am excited about it, and also upset with myself for starting that.Pete: That’s all right. Friend of the pod. Friend of the pod.Jesse: “New friend of the pod here. I work in strategic sourcing and procurement and I was curious if there are any ways that you recommend to get up to speed with managing cloud spend. This is usually closely monitored by finance or different groups in product, but I can see a significant potential value for a sourcing professional to help, also.” And that’s from Barry, thank you, Barry.Pete: Well, I’m struggling not to laugh. “This is usually closely monitored by finance or different groups in product.”Jesse: Yeah…Pete: But I mean, let’s be honest, it’s not monitored by anyone. It’s just running up a meter in a taxi going 100 miles an hour.Jesse: Yeah, that’s the hardest part. I want everybody to be involved in the cloud cost management practice, but there’s that same idea of if it’s everyone’s responsibility, it’s no one’s responsibility. And so this usually ends up at a point where you’ve got the CFO walking over to the head of engineering saying, “Why did the spend go up?” And that’s never a good conversation to have.Pete: No, never a good one. Well, Barry because you’re a friend of the pod, we will answer this question for you. And honestly, I think it’s a great question, which is, we actually have been working with a lot of larger enterprises and these enterprises still have their classic sourcing and procurement teams. That’s not an expertise that is going away anytime soon, but like most teams within the company that are adopting cloud, it’s obviously going to evolve as people are moving away from, kind of, capital intensive purchases and into, honestly, more complex, multi-year OpEx style purchases, with cloud services and all the different vendors that come with it. It’s going to just get a lot harder.I mean, it’s probably already a lot harder for those types of teams. And so there’s a bunch of places I think that you can go that can help level up your skills around cloud spend. And I would say the first place that I personally got to dive in a little bit more—I mean, my history has been using Amazon cloud and being a person who cared about how much my company spent on it, but when you—joining Duckbill, you need to dive into other areas around the FinOps world. And the book, the O’Reilly book, Cloud FinOps is actually a really great resource.Yeah, I think it’s really well written and there’s a lot of great chapters within there that you can kind of pick and choose based on what you’re most interested in learning about. If you’re trying to learn more about unit economics, or you’re trying to learn more about how to monitor and track things like that, it’s a great book to dive into, and becomes a really great reference that you can leverage as you’re trying to level up this expertise within yourself or your team.Jesse: It’s a really, really great resource. The other thing to think about is any kind of collaborative social spaces where you can be with like-minded individuals who also care about cloud costs. Now, there’s a number of meetups that exist under the FinOps title that may be worth looking into. Obviously, we’re recording this during the pandemic so I don’t recommend doing those in person. But as you are able to, there may be opportunities for in-person meetups and smaller local groups focusing on cloud cost management strategies together. But also check out the FinOps Foundation. They have a Slack space that I would love to tell you more about, but unfortunately, we’re not allowed to join. So—Pete: Yep.Jesse: —I can’t really say more about it than that. I would hope that you’re allowed to join, but they have some strict guidelines. So, I mean, the worst that can happen is they say no; it’s definitely worth signing up.Pete: Yeah, and they have to us. [laugh].Jesse: Yeah.Pete: I think when you get into the FinOps Foundation, you should angrily say that we should have more FinOps experts in here like the great Jesse DeRose should be a member of this one because right now, he’s just framed his rejection notice from there, and—Jesse: Oh, yeah.Pete: —while it looks beautiful on the wall, while I’m on a Zoom with him, I want more for you, Jesse.Jesse: I want more for me, too. I’m not going to lie.Pete: So, I don’t know this might sound a little ridiculous that I’m going to say something nice about AWS, but they have a fantastic cost management blog. This is a really fantastic resource, really incredible resource, with a lot more content more recently. They seem to be doing some great work on the recruiting side and bringing on some real fantastic experts around cost management.I mean, just recently within the past few months they talk about unit economics: How to select a unit metric that might support your business, talking more about unit metrics in practice. They start at the basics, too. I mean, obviously, we deal a lot in unit economics and unit metrics; they will start you off with something very basic and say, “Well, what even is this thing?” And talk to you more about cost reporting using AWS organizations for some of this. It’s a really fantastic resource.It’s all free, too, which is—it’s weird to say that something from AWS is free. So, anytime that you can find a free resource from Amazon, I say, highly recommend it. But there are a lot of blogs on the AWS site, but again, the Cost Management Blog, great resource. I read it religiously; I think what they’re writing is some of, really, the best content on the blog in general.Jesse: There’s one other book that I want to recommend called Mastering AWS Cost Optimization and we’ll throw links to all these in the [show notes 00:07:30], but I, unfortunately, have not read this book yet, so I can’t give strong recommendations for it, but it is very similar in style and vein to the Cloud FinOps book that we just mentioned, so might be another great resource to pick up to give you some spot learning of different components of the cloud cost management workflow and style.Pete: Awesome. Yeah, definitely agree. I’d love to see, again, more content out here. There’s a lot of stuff that exists. And even A Cloud Guru has come up with cost management training sessions.Again, we’d like to see more and more of this. I’d love to see more of this come from Amazon. I’d love to see—you know, they have a certification path in all these different areas; I’d love to see more of that in the cost management world because I think it’s going to become more complex, and having that knowledge, there is so much knowledge, it’s spread so far across AWS, helping more people get up to speed on it will be just critical for businesses who want to better understand what their spend is doing. So, really great question, Barry, friend of the pod. We should get some pins for that, right? Friend of the pod pins?Jesse: Oh, yeah.Pete: And yeah, really great question. Really appreciate you sending it and hopefully that helps you. And if not, guess what? You can go to lastweekinaws.com/QA, and just ask us a follow-up question, Barry. Because you’re a friend of the pod. So, we’ll hopefully hear from you again soon.Jesse: Thanks, Barry.Pete: Thanks.Announcer: If your mean time to WTF for a security alert is more than a minute, it’s time to look at Lacework. Lacework will help you get your security act together for everything from compliance service configurations to container app relationships, all without the need for PhDs in AWS to write the rules. If you’re building a secure business on AWS with compliance requirements, you don’t really have time to choose between antivirus or firewall companies to help you secure your stack. That’s why Lacework is built from the ground up for the cloud: Low effort, high visibility, and detection. To learn more, visit lacework.com.Pete: All right, we have one more question. Jesse, what is it?Jesse: “All right, most tech execs I speak with have already chosen a destination hyperscaler of choice. They ask me to take them there. I can either print out a map they can follow, procedural style, or I can be their Uber driver. I could be declarative. I prefer the latter for flexibility reasons, but having said that, where does one actually start?Do you start with Infrastructure as a Service and some RDS to rid them of that pesky expensive Oracle bill? Do we start with a greenfield? I mean, having a massive legacy footprint, it takes a while to move things over, and integrating becomes a costly affair. There’s definitely a chicken and egg scenario here. How do I ultimately find the best path forward?” That question is from Marsellus Wallace? Thank you, Marsellus.Pete: Great question. And I’m not just saying that. I guess I have a question. Or at least, maybe we have different answers based on what this really looks like. Is this a legacy data center migration?The solution here is basically lift-and-shift. Do it quickly. And most importantly, don’t forget to refactor and clean up after you shut down your old data center. Don’t leave old technical debt behind. And, yeah, you’re going to spend a lot, you’re going to look at your bill and go, “Holy hell, what just happened here?”But it’s not going to stay that way. That’s probably—if you do it right—the highest your bill is going to be because lift-and-shift means basically just moving compute from one location to another. And if you’re—as we spoken about probably a million times, Jesse and I, if you just run everything on EC2 like a data center, it’s the most expensive way to do the cloud stuff. So, you’re going to then refactor and bring in ephemerality and tiering of data and all those fun things that we talk about. Now, is this a hybrid cloud world?That’s a little bit different because that means you’re not technically going to get rid of, maybe, physical locations or physical data centers, so where do you start? It’s my personal opinion—and Jesse has his own opinion, too, and guess what it’s our podcast and we’re going to tell it like it is.Jesse: [laugh].Pete: [laugh]. You know, my belief is, starting with storage is honestly a great way to get into cloud. Specifically S3. Maybe even your corporate file systems, using a tool like FSX. It’s honestly why many businesses start their cloud journey, by moving corporate email and file systems into the cloud.I mean, as a former Microsoft Exchange administrator, I am thoroughly happy that you don’t have to manage that, really, anymore and you can push that in the cloud. So, I think storage is honestly a great way to get started within there: Get S3 going, move your file systems in there, move your email in there if you haven’t yet. That’s a really great way to do it. Now, the next one that I would move probably just as aggressively into and, Marsellus, you mentioned it: RDS, right? “Should we move into RDS, get rid of expensive Oracle bills?”Yeah, anytime you can pay ol’ Uncle Larry less money is better in my mindset. Databases are, again, another really great way of getting into AWS. They work so well, RDS is just such a great service, but don’t forget about DMS, the database migration service. This is the most underrated cloud service that Amazon has in there, it will help you migrate your workloads into RDS, into Amazon Aurora. But one thing I do want to call out before you start migrating data in there, talk to your account manager—you have one even if you don’t think you have one—before starting anything, and have them help you identify if there are any current programs that exist to help you migrate that data in.Again, Amazon will incentivize you to do it, they will provide you credits, like map credits or other investment credits, maybe even professional services that can help you migrate this data from an on-premise Oracle into AWS, I think you will be very pleasantly surprised with how aggressive that they can be to help you get into there. The last thing that I would say is another great thing to move in our data projects. So, let’s say you want to do a greenfield one, greenfield type of project into Amazon, data projects are a really great way to move in there. I’m talking things like EMR, Databricks, Qubole, you get to take advantage of Spot Fleets with EMR, but also Databricks and Qubole can manage Spot infrastructure and really take advantage of cloud ephemerality. So if, like I said, you started by pushing all your data into S3, you’re already halfway there on a really solid data engineering project, and now you get to leverage a lot of these other ancillary services like Glue, Glue DataBrew, Athena, Redshift.I mean, once the data is in S3, you have a lot of flexibility. So, that’s my personal opinion on where to get started there. But Jesse, I know you always have a different take on these, so where do you think that they should start?Jesse: Yeah, I think all of the recommendations you just made are really, really great options. I always like to look at this from the perspective of the theory side or the strategy side. What ultimately do these tech execs want to accomplish? Is it getting out of data centers? Is it better cost visibility?Is it optimizing spend? Is it better opportunity to move fast, get new R&D things that you can’t get in a data center? What do these tech execs ultimately want to accomplish? And ask them. Start by asking them.Prioritize the work that they want to accomplish first, and work with teams to change their behaviors to accomplish their goals. One of the biggest themes that we see in the space moving from data centers into cloud providers or even just growing within a given cloud provider is cost visibility. Do teams know why their spend is what it is? Do they know why it went up or down month-over-month? Can they tell you the influences and the drivers that cause their spend to go up or down?Can they specifically call out which teams or product usage increased or decreased, and what ultimately led to your spending changing? Make sure that every team has an architecture diagram and they can explain how they use AWS, how data moves from one service to another, both within their product and to other products. Because there’s definitely going to be sharp edges with data transfer between accounts. We’ve seen this happen to a number of clients before; I’ve gotten bit by this bullet. So, talk to your teams, or talk to your tech executives and have those tech executives talk to their teams to understand what do they ultimately want to accomplish?Can they tie all of what they’re trying to accomplish back to business metrics? Maybe a spike in user logins generated more usage? If you’re a photo storage company, did a world event prompt a lot of users to upload photos prompting higher storage costs? Are you able to pull out these specific insights? That’s ultimately the big question here. Can you boil it down to a business KPI that changed, that ultimately impacted your AWS spend?Pete: I think this is a scenario of where you get started. Why not both? Just maybe do both of these things that we’re saying.Jesse: Yeah.Pete: And honestly, I think you’ll end up in a pretty great place. So, let us know how that works out, Marsellus, and thank you for the question. Again, you also can send us your questions, and we will maybe answer these on a future episode; lastweekinaws.com/QA, drop a question in there, put your name, or not or a fake name, or even a joke. That’s fine, too. I don’t know what the text limit is on the name, Jesse. Can you put a joke there? I don’t know. You know what? Test that out for us. It’s not slash QA for nothing. So, give that a little QA, or a question and answer and [unintelligible 00:17:29]. All right. Well, thanks, Jesse, for helping me out answering more questions.Jesse: Thanks, everybody for the awesome questions.Pete: If you enjoyed this podcast, please go to lastweekinaws.com/review, give it a five-star review on your podcast platform of choice, whereas if you hated this podcast, please go to lastweekinaws.com/review and give it a five-star rating on your podcast platform of choice and tell us, what would be the last thing that you would move to AWS?

Exploreren is immer een menseneigen must geweest. Sinds een knulletje adoreerde ik de telescoop en later ontdekte ik iedere kroeg, zowel hier als in een galaxy far far away. Films brachten ons echter verder. Met het prikkelende filmisch nieuwgierigheidsorgaan doken we in oude slagvelden en toekomstig strijdtoneel. Miljoenen dollars en een special effectje hier en daar teleporteerde de bioscoop naar galactische werelden die een extase voor de oogballen zijn. De 90's huisvesten tijdloze ruimtekrakers en goofy aliencircussen. Echter, is het bij science fiction ook niet altijd rozengeur en maneschijn (waarschijnlijk iets meer maneschijn). Kunnen deze films mee met de tijd? Of hoe Marsellus Wallace eloquent zegt: wine or vinegar? Hetzelfde geldt voor epische oorlogsfilms met de verantwoordelijk van de historische context onder de arm. De jaren 90 waren een gouden era voor het naspelen van epische veldslagen van vroeger.

Logra que tu personaje sea bien recibido en tu mesa de juegos, este episodio te trae algo que puedes aprovechar y unas preguntas que harán que tú encajes en cualquier mundo de ficción. | iTunes | Android | Ivoox | Stitcher | Spotify | RSS | Descarga | :::Transcripción del Episodio a Continuación::: :::  ::: | Redes Sociales | Apoya el Podcast con: | Fondos de Pantalla | Mercancía | Damas y Caballeros de todas las especies, esto es Rolero Casual. Donde exploramos los juegos de rol desde la ignorancia.  Yo soy Azrael, un jugador "motivado". La Iniciativa de hoy es breve pero sustanciosa. Desde iVoox en el Episodio 2 sobre si el sistema importa Jarcorcito comenta: Hola Azrael, respondiendo a la pregunta considero que el sistema es importante porque el juego está hecho para ser jugado como está, después de probar la experiencia que el diseñador quería ofrecernos,tendríamos la libertad de retocar cuanto queramos o dejarlo como está Y pues sí, estoy de acuerdo. Como decía una publicidad en mi tierra "No digas que 'no', si no lo has probado" También en iVoox en el Episodio 4 sobre las Características de Dragones y Mazmorras Marturo77 dice: Saludos desde Colombia!,, gracias por el podcast. Gracias Marturo por el apoyo y un abrazo de un Venezolano en Canadá. Desde la Comunidad Umbría llega Chemo y dice: De momento he leído la primera transcripción (Narratividad y recursos en el rol) y me ha gustado. No estoy de acuerdo en el tema de las raciones. Ahí habría que acordar a qué estamos jugando. Si es una partida tipo 'fantasía heróica' más clásica estaría de acuerdo, pero hay modalidades de rol como la exploración sandbox donde la planificación del viaje y las raciones (y la preparación para clima/entorno) tiene tanta importancia como saber si tienes espadas mágicas por si aparecen fantasmas. Pero son estilos de juego muy particulares, entiendo que tú vas a algo más genérico. Y como conversamos en la comunidad te doy aquí la razón también. Los recursos que son importantes para un sistema deben formar parte de él y no ser dejados de lado. Quiero aprovechar y decir que leo todas las reseñas, preguntas y mensajes que mandas y contesto a todos y cada uno de ellos. Si quieres que lea lo que piensas basta con hacérmelo llegar y si es una reseña en iTunes, mejor aún. A ver si logramos que Rolero Casual llega a más gente. Cada uno de ustedes me alegra el día y me animan a seguir adelante y por eso les estoy eternamente agradecidos. El tema de hoy viene, como solemos hacer algunos roleros, robado de gente que admiramos. Después de todo, dicen el hurto es la mayor clase de halago en la industria creativa. Así que nos vamos a ello: Personajes: Nociones y Presentaciones Si sigues el mundo del rol en Inglés hay muchos referentes que marcan pauta, pero Matthew Colville es a quien yo suelo escuchar cuando la adultez me lo permite. Y hace unos días vi su video en Pitching Your Character que vas a encontrar insertado a continuación por si te interesa. En el video, él usa una frase muy poderosa para mi que dice "It is Important for the Dungeon Master to like your Character" y traduzco: Es Importante que al Amo del Calabozo le guste tu personaje. Aunque él hable en el video de Dragones y Mazmorras, esa idea aplica a todos los juegos y es una filosofía que ha estado permeando poco a poco a la industria indie, donde dicen cosas como que el director es el primer fan de los jugadores. Pero cuando 4 o más se reúnen existen 5 mínimo 5 mundos a encontrarse. El que cada uno trae a la mesa, y el mundo que les espera. Lo que puede complicar un poco las cosas, no porque alguien quiera que se compliquen, sino porque uno quiere lo mejor para el juego pero no hemos hablado de lo que eso se pueda significar para el grupo. Para resolver ese problema, la medicina es una dosis de Sesión Cero. Pero antes de comenzar la sesión, tenemos que saber que es nuestro trabajo como jugadores traer algunas cosas a la mesa para presentar esas ideas de personaje que tenemos. Mat Colville comenta que debemos traer varias ideas de personaje. Él explica que es bueno tener algunas nociones pero nada en concreto para permitirte encajar las piezas realmente importantes en el mundo en el que vamos a jugar. Y como él no da ejemplos específicos en base a eso, yo traigo mi granito de arena de cómo hacerlo y como yo soy más que todo un jugador quiero traer una lista de cosas que podrían ayudarnos, a ti y a mí, a presentar nuestras ideas al DJ para sacar el mayor provecho de la partida. Lo primero que se me ocurre hacer es: Identificar la motivación de tu personaje: esto puede ser algo tan sencillo como una palabra. Recuerda que la idea es tener opciones abiertas no establecer algo definitivo. Algunas motivaciones típicas de nuestra afición son: Venganza Riquezas Supervivencia Otras un poco más interesantes para mí pueden ser: Miedo Presión grupal Aceptación Curiosidad Culpa Una vez tienes identificados al menos 2 motivaciones que te atrapen, el siguiente paso sería definir si son Internas o Externas. Toma en cuenta que no soy psicólogo y voy a usar estos términos muy ligeramente. Una Motivación Interna, es aquella que el personaje quiere realizar por deseo propio. Mientras que una Motivación Externa es aquella que factores externos imponen sobre el personaje. La mayoría de las motivaciones pueden servir en ambas categorías lo que le da más profundidad a tu personaje porque no es lo mismo decir: Esto: ... que decir esto: En ambos casos, la venganza es lo que les motiva pero en el caso de Iñigo, es un deseo que ha perseguido durante años, mientras que en el caso de Jules, es una orden que le ha dado Marsellus Wallace. Traer motivaciones al DJ va a darle una idea de cómo puede encajar tu personaje en el hilo de la historia que está planteando. Y podría permitir que te dé algún punto de origen que puedas considerar para tu historia. Se me ocurre que podemos crear algunas nociones como ejemplo y que en este caso las motivaciones de un personaje pueden ser: Curiosidad y Aceptación, luego veremos con que terminamos. Lo segundo se trata de definir al menos 2 elementos de tu Trasfondo: Como ejemplos típicos tenemos: Noble Huérfana Lobo Solitario Ejemplos más interesantes pueden ser también: Granjera Bartender Exploradora Pacifista Leal Los elementos elegidos pueden estar relacionados o no con las motivaciones pero de estarlos, es bueno también elegir un par de trasfondos para cada motivación. Así tu DJ podrá tener más hilos para tejer tu historia en el mundo. Y tu tendrás más opciones para cuando las estadísticas tomen sus valores. En nuestro caso voy a elegir Exploradora y Leal. Lo tercero que se debe hacer va a depender levemente del sistema: Si el juego tiene Razas o Clases, elige al menos 2 de cada una que desearías interpretar. Si el sistema no tiene razas o clases, es posible que tenga modalidades semejantes a ellas y deberás elegir algunas alternativas que apliquen al caso. Aquí voy a aprovechar y decir que jugaremos a un sistema que me gustaría probar y diré que hemos elegido Blacksad de Nosolorol Y elegiremos Razas posibles como Canina y Felina Y lo cuarto y último, y he dejado lo más importante para el final de esta sección, es Leer el material que el DJ ha proporcionado sobre el mundo en el cual se va a jugar. Repito: Leer... el material... que el DJ ha proporcionado... sobre el mundo en el cual se va a jugar. Esto no quiere decir que se debe estar amarrado a ese material 100% y que el DJ no cambiará nada, pero si tú como jugador entiendes el tono y las ideas que el DJ quiere tocar se te hará más fácil saber cuales son las razones de las restricciones que puede tener ese mundo. Este punto debería ser lo primero que hagas porque va a informar mucho más tu elecciones y ademas te va a permitir saber qué tipo de cosas de ese mundo te gustaría cambiar o ajustar porque el mundo es tan tuyo como del DJ y estoy seguro de que ella estará muy feliz de incorporar las ideas de cada participante en la campaña. Todo esto es para pensarlo en el camino a esa Sesión Cero. Ahora que ha llegado el día y tienes las nociones claras es hora de compartirlas con tu grupo. Como ya has leído el material enviado por el DJ, estás formando parte de la discusión que genera hablar del mundo en el que van a jugar. No sólo eso, sino que además estarás metida de lleno al escuchar las nociones que tus compañeras han traído a la mesa. Aquí es importante que respondas a algunas preguntas para poder presentar tu personaje y que el DJ entienda porqué es tan importante para la historia que van a contar. ¿Cómo se vinculan tus motivaciones con el mundo y con las de tus compañeras? ¿Cuales trasfondos se aplican mejor a la ambientación? o ¿Cómo pueden ser involucrados o ajustados para que tengan un espacio en el mundo? ¿Porqué esas Razas y/o Clases son tan importantes para ti, para el personaje y para la historia que quieres contar? ¿Cual es la combinación de elementos discutidos que más potencial tiene en la historia? Responder a cada una de esas preguntas, irá informando el personaje y podrá darle a tus compañeras y DJ alguien por quien estar emocionados y con quien compartir. Y una vez las tengas establecidas tendrás un par de líneas de quien es el personaje y quizá hasta una frase célebre. En nuestro caso podríamos decir que al final hemos elegido ser alguien curioso de raza canina que gusta de explorar de manera descuidad. Su frase célebre podría ser : No se a donde voy, pero voy corriendo. Claro, es muy fácil hacer este ejercicio solo, rodeado de ropa guindada en un closet porque es el lugar con la mejor acústica para grabar tu podcast casual en casa. Eso es muy fácil. La parte difícil, pero también divertida, será conversar realmente con una mesa de verdad esas ideas que traes para darle forma entre todos. Pero esa tarea te la dejo para que me la entregues durante la semana y me digas qué tal te fue. Como breve anécdota, te cuento que en una oportunidad reuní a un grupo de panas aquí en Vancouver para probar Babel y me llegó un jugador diciendo que él quería crear un personaje como Rick de la seria Rick and Morty con un gran arsenal de gadgets y electrónicos que le permitieran moverse entre las dimensiones. Él había pensado que eso sería genial, y claro que sería genial, en un juego de SciFi pero como no se leyó nada de lo que le mandé no supo que la ambientación era Magicpunk Victoriana y no Ciencia Ficción. Igual pudimos tener una sesión entretenida a pesar de las diferencias, pero eso tuvo que ver con que lo importante de esa sesión fue probar la creación de personaje y algunas cosas que no tenían que ver con la ambientación. Así que me la llevé por delante y tuvimos una conversa en un pseudomundo como el nuestro. Estamos comenzando el año y las noticias son pocas y algo monótonas pero se dejan oír de todas formas Los Reportes del Cantinero de este episodio: Desde Mindscape Publishing, llega la noticia de que Misspent Youth está en traducción y que esperan tener una preventa a mediados de año. Yo me enteré por sorpresa porque tenía tiempo que no veía algo en las redes por su representante y de repente salió con este anuncio en todos lados al mismo tiempo. El mecenazgo de The Sprawl traducido por Yipikayei se financió en 10 horas, nagüevonada de rápido. Aunque ahora esta algo estancado no hay duda de que seguirá desbloqueando aventuras. El equipo de D&D Beyond ha publicado mediante Twitch sus estadísticas del año y han revelado que las aventuras más vistas en la plataforma son Waterdeep Dragon Heist y Curse of Strahd lo interesante del asunto son los valores de las reseñas de ambos módulos: Waterdeep tiene un 61% de aprobación mientras que Strahd tiene un 90% lo que me dice a mi que a la maldición de Strahd la juegan porque es buena pero a Waterdeep la juegan porque es nueva.

Antes de irme hay dos cosas que debo decir, la primera es agradecer al grupo de Rol, ALbiones y Dramones en WhatsApp, no son solo mis mejores amigos, son mi grupo de rol en Venezuela y además me ayudaron a que este episodio en particular tuviera ejemplo apropiados.

5 minutes pour aborder les plus grandes répliques du cinéma : c’est le retour estival de Ma ligne de chance, sur Radio Campus Paris. Nous découvrons aujourd’hui le cinéma de Tarantino. En particulier, nous abordons son film culte : Pulp Fiction. Car dans celui-ci se trouve une scène qui nous permettra de réfléchir sur l'amour-propre. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHTeq3klVZY « Pride only hurts, it never helps ». « L’orgueil fait seulement mal, il n’aide jamais. » Cette réplique de Ving Rhames nous a donné à penser. Et voici notre interprétation, subjective bien sûr, de cette trouvaille du scénariste-réalisateur Quentin Tarantino. Cette réplique est celle d’un personnage secondaire, Marsellus Wallace, incarné par Ving Rhames. Marsellus est le patron de nombreux truands. D'ailleurs, il est un gangster lui-même. Dans la scène qui nous intéresse, Marsellus est face à un boxeur, Butch Coolidge. Celui-ci va disputer le lendemain le dernier combat de sa carrière. Or Marsellus lui remet de l’argent : car il attend en échange que Butch perde le combat à un moment précis. Face aux hésitations de Butch, Marsellus prononce sa célèbre réplique. Nous avons traduit « pride » par « orgueil ». Mais cela n’a rien d’évident. Le mot anglais recouvre les sens français de fierté, d’honneur, de vanité. Un mot, courant dans l’histoire de la philosophie, réunit ces différentes idées : l’amour-propre. Ainsi Marsellus enjoint à Butch de n’avoir pas d’amour-propre. Autrement dit, il l'incite à n'avoir pas d’état d’âme, pas de scrupule quant à être corrompu. Dans ce rejet de l'amour-propre, Marsellus semble se rapprocher de Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Le philosophe a développé ses théories notamment dans le Discours sur l’origine et les fondements de l’inégalité parmi les hommes. Venez comprendre en quoi Rousseau éclaire Tarantino en écoutant notre podcast !   Les références de l'émission :     Pour aller plus loin : Sur l'amour-propre comme motif des actes, voir le théâtre de Marivaux. Une critique moraliste de l'amour-propre : les Maximes de La Rochefoucauld. Sur l'importance des amour-propres individuels pour la collectivité : la pensée de Mandeville.

Actual Anarchy Podcast - AnCap Movie Reviews from a Rothbardian Perspective

Well, it's finally come to this. Robert's number one favoritist movie of all time, Quentin Tarantino's 1994 masterpiece, Pulp Fiction. The movie that revived a few careers and let Samuel L. Jackson rip. Jules Winnfield and Vincent Vega are two hitmen who are out to retrieve a suitcase stolen from their employer, mob boss Marsellus Wallace. Wallace has also asked Vincent to take his wife Mia out a few days later when Wallace himself will be out of town. Butch Coolidge is an aging boxer who is paid by Wallace to lose his next fight. The lives of these seemingly unrelated people are woven together comprising of a series of funny, bizarre and uncalled-for incidents. We do our best to parse this one that has so much to unpack.  It's a very well done movie that stands up over the course of time.   Show notes and more at: www.actualanarchy.com/39 Thank you for joining us on this episode of the Actual Anarchy Podcast! The Actual Anarchy Podcast is all about Maximum Freedom. Robert and I analyze popular movies from a Rothbardian/Anarcho-Capitalist perspective. If it's voluntary, we're cool with it. If it's not, then it violated the Non-Aggression Principle and Property Rights - the core tenants of Libertarian Theory - and hence - human freedom. We use movies as a starting point for people who may not be familiar with this way of thinking. Discussion of the plot and decisions that characters make in relation to morality and violations of the non-aggression principle are our bread and butter. We also will highlight and discuss any themes or lessons from Austrian Economics that we can glean from the film. The point is to show what anarchy actually is with instances that are presented in film. We publish new episodes on Sunday just in time for your Monday commute; and occasionally will do specials surrounding holidays or events (elections/olympics). ABOUT Actual Anarchy, an anarchy unlike what the average idiot thinks it would be. Anarchy means no rulers, not no rules. The non-aggression principle and a respect of property rights are what makes it go. We host a podcast where we take pop culture movies and showcase moments or scenes or themes throughout that are literally actual examples of anarchy. Any place, around the world, there are always examples of Actual Anarchy all about you. Sometimes you just have to sit back and take a look. It’s easy once they’ve been pointed out a few times. Actual Anarchy is real world examples of anarchy in action. Movies, Shows, Books, News, etc… we host all sorts of content on the site from a bevy of writers enthusiastic for one goal: human freedom Read Rothbard – Become an Actual Anarchist PRESENTED BY Read Rothbard is comprised of a small group of voluntaryists who are fans of Murray N. Rothbard. We curate content at www.ActualAnarchy.com and on the www.ReadRothbard.com site including books, lectures, articles, speeches, and we make a weekly podcast based on his free-market approach to economics. Our focus is on education and how advancement in technology improves the living standards of the average person.

Quentin Tarantino has arguably created some of the most strong and iconic African American characters in cinema: Jules. Marsellus Wallace. Jackie Brown. Django. And most recently, Major Marquis Warren. Ironically, he also gets a lot of flack for his more than generous use of the infamous "N-word." On today's episode, I'm joined by friends of the show JD & Yolanda Cochran (indie filmmaker and ex-production company executive, respectively) to address this topic and the overall PC climate in entertainment.WARNING: there is a generous use of the aforementioned N-word in this episode. You may squirm in discomfort as you listen. Or, more than likely, you'll laugh heartily with only a slight twinge of uneasiness. Either way, our discussion will give you some provocative and deep ideas to ponder.Check out Bret Easton Ellis' podcast. The Quentin Tarantino episode is December 7.

Every once in a while, we as boxing fans are reminded that "that's why they get in there and actually fight." Sometimes match ups sound absurd or likely one-sided, and because of that we lose sight of the old, throw away phrase that, in boxing, "anything is possible." This past weekend, Miguel Cotto usurped the middleweight throne with no fistic regrets, grinding Sergio Martinez to dust, and making approximately 3/4 of the boxing community look stupid in the meantime. What does it mean? Was Sergio Martinez shot? Was Miguel Cotto underrated? Has anyone ever actually beaten Tetris? What was in Marsellus Wallace's suitcase, damnit??? Bad Left Hook's James Foley and Patrick Connor of Queensberry Rules will attempt to answer at least a few of those questions. This week, the asinine aphrodisiacs are joined by Eric Raskin, boxing contributor to ESPN, HBO and Grantland, and author of The Moneymaker Effect.
